I have been able to follow Leo's work on several projects. That is why I conclude that Leo has excellent communication skills and outstanding charisma. These qualities are very essential for a leader in a team. Leo can work in several positions at once, which gives him flexibility. I would be happy to work with him once again!

I have enjoyed working with Leandro at Techint and Bovis Lend Lease, on multinational engineering and construction projects. Leandro networks very well at all levels, and efficiency deals with all tasks allocated to him. He operates comfortably in Spanish or English.
